[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 318783, member: 1233"] So sorry you are having to deal with this. The laws governing mandated reporting are different from state to state. We lived in one state where every time a child said they were abused all children in the home had to go to a relative or youth shelter or foster home until CPS could investigate. Now I live in a state where the reporter is supposed to show some judgment so that children who are trying to get out of trouble or are clearly making up stories are not given such power over the adults in their lives. Have you "experts" each write a letter and have it in their FILE with a release to be sent with-o court order to anyone who is investigating this. Then give the CPS person a list of doctor's numbers and addresses to get a copy of the letter. SOME places will let you turn in a letter from a doctor, but not all because they think parents might tamper with them. Talk to your mom about this. You cannot force her, but you can ask her to not make this type of visit so much fun. Maybe if you emphasize that this power that your son gets with each report and visit is hurting HER child will help her understand. IF your mom is on good terms and is willing to work iwth you to help your son, then you might take her to some of the appointments where you discuss how this is impacting the entire family. [/QUOTE]
